Turkey Roasting Instructions
- Remove your fresh turkey out of refrigeration; bring to room temperature no longer than 1 hour.
- Season your turkey with salt and pepper, dried herbs, or use a butter rub under the skin.

- Using an internal thermometer is the safest way to determine if your turkey is done.
- According to the USDA a turkey must be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
- In a 325 degree F oven, plan on about 15 minutes per pound for an un-stuffed bird. For stuffed turkeys, add another 15 minutes to the total cook time.
- After removing from the oven, allow your turkey to rest at least 20 minutes before carving.
